CADENAS PARTsolutions currently has millions of registered engineers
accessing data from 199 countries, downloading an average of 6.15
million CAD models per month, with peak months in excess of 7 million
files downloaded.

"Millions of engineers and designers around the world are using our
technology to simplify their design process. The proof is in the
data," says Rob Zesch, President and COO of CADENAS PARTsolutions.

Average monthly downloads increased by 22% from 5.0 million per month
in 2011 to 6.2 million per month in 2012. "The fact that we continue
to grow is great news for our customers. Our goal is to place
manufacturers' 3D CAD data in the hands of the engineers. Increased
downloads create a win-win for both sides. More engineers are saving
hours of design time, and up to 85% of the downloads result in a
purchase for the manufacturer."
Contributing to growth in 2012 are expanded features and capabilities
of the eCATALOGsolutions product offering, including a mobile app
platform, Revit(R) BIM support, an upgraded browser viewer and new
user registration and data capture capabilities.

Mobile Apps Platform
Using the CADENAS PARTsolutions mobile app
platform, manufacturers of industrial components can now combine
their digital product catalog, CAD models, data sheets, news,
distributor locations and other essential sales info into a single
app for both Apple's iOS and Google's Android powered devices.

"This marks the first mobile app offering designed specifically for
industrial component manufacturers and adds a new dimension of
accessibility for users," says Zesch. Mobile apps enable companies to
demonstrate their commitment to cutting edge technology and give
field sales reps and distributors a competitive edge.

Revit(R) BIM Model Support
CADENAS PARTsolutions now offers Revit(R)
support enabling engineers and designers to access models in BIM
format, which can be sourced and downloaded directly from the
manufacturer. Additionally, by adding Revit(R) to their CAD selection
options, industrial manufacturers can continue to ride the wave of
BIM popularity and gain greater visibility with a larger audience.

PART2cad Direct Insert Feature
The PART2cad feature builds a bridge
between the user's internet browser and CAD system to instantly open
and insert a working model. This feature supports full native CAD
functionality such as vendor and part numbers, mates and constraints,
assembly relationships and more. Engineers can directly "test-fit"
parts in their CAD system before they buy, ensuring the right fit the
first time, resulting in increased purchase accuracy and customer
satisfaction.

New Enhanced Viewer with Cross-Browser Support
A complete revamp of
the PARTsolutions 3D CAD viewer marks the most beautiful interface
and detailed viewing experience available on the web for configured
3D CAD models. The new viewer adds high resolution HD-like quality
visualizations to manufacturers' embedded eCATALOG configurators. The
new viewer also features expanded support for all major web browsers
including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome
and Apple Safari. The viewer enables users to choose their preferred
web browser without compromising visual quality, performance or
functionality.

User Registration Module
Expanded user registration capabilities
help manufacturers better monetize their CAD configurator and more
accurately measure the ROI for their eCATALOG investment. For
manufacturers looking to reach out to their customers & prospects
downloading their models, a "required login" feature option is
available. Capturing opt-in user registration data enables companies
to keep engineers informed of product news as well as access to
powerful customer data with marketing lead generation benefits.
